il Casale Cucina Italiana and Bar

Il Casale means “country house,” a fitting description of a dining room full of exposed brick, wrought iron light fixtures and wooden beams. The décor is rustic , but the cuisine is quite refined.

love it every time i go. great food and super service. make a reservation if you can, and don't count on bar seating during happy hour . worth the wait, either way.

The arancini is amazing. The affogato is an excellent way to end a meal. Thoroughly enjoyed our entire meal

Like any good Italian grandson, chef Dante de Magistris gives all the credit to his nonna. But only de Magistris could make them somehow elegant and unfussy, rich and restrained. Good for groups . Read more

I recommend ordering the 'Old Cuban' from the cocktail menu .

Pan-Italian food that pushes no envelopes but delivers at every level. It’s not cheap , but our critic couldn’t find a course or even a dish for you to skip. Read more
